Kourtney Kardashian reacts to controversy over taking son Rocky on a boat without life vest: ‘Thank you for making…'
Kourtney Kardashian Barker has responded to backlash for allegedly endangering her son's life on a boat, reported People magazine. The controversy started after the 46-year-old dropped a photo of breastfeeding her 21-month-old son, Rocky Thirteen, while traveling on a boat.
Fans were quick to spot that both Kardashian and the toddler were without a life vest during the boat trip.
The photo in question was from Kourtney Kardashian's recent vacation with her family. Several fans alleged that the co-author of Kardashian Konfidential put her and her son, Rocky Thirteen's, lives in jeopardy.
'You gotta make sure the kids are wearing life vests at all times!' a follower commented.
Another wrote, 'Why wouldn't you have a life jacket on the baby and yourself? Boats capsize all the time.'
'Protects her son's face from the internet but doesn't protect him from possibly drowning…..priorities,' a follower commented.
The Kardashians star later responded to the matter on her Instagram Stories and wrote, "Update: Bought a life vest that fits! Good looking out. Honestly, didn't think about some of the dangers. Thank you for making me aware and hopefully this helps make other mommies aware of the dangers of certain types of boating without a life vest." A screenshot of update shared by Kourtney Kardashian
